I might as well post my top Mangas at the moment, just to show the type of stuff I like. That and I have 18 minutes to kill until The Odd Couple goes on TV. This is only Five of my favorites in my like, top 15 and it is in no order. They are just on my computer at the time.
1. Nazo no Kanojo X- A weird anime. It is a Slow Romance about a teenage boy and a really really weird girl. This is an unusual romance, not focusing on the sexual aspect or even stuff like kissing (it is like 60 chapters in, they haven't kissed yet). It is more about Love through one different type of bond, and what happens when things try to deviate you from the bond one has with a girl.....It just so happens that bond is...Saliva. it is really weird at the premise but it is really good once you get into it. Also, it is currently airing as an anime right this instant.
2. Tsukiyo no Fromage- This anime doesn't really have any deeper meaning to it. Frankly, just reading it will give you diabetes. The premise is that a boy falls asleep and wakes up as the heroine of a VN he played. It is cute, really cute, and very Slice of Life-ish with some supernatural stuff. It also has some pseudo-yuri, but then one remembers the main character is a guy in a girls body. Again, not for everyone.
3. Baba-Yaga. Only four Chapters have been scanlated and one chapter appears like, once every quarter year, and has yet to be translated but I can see the potential in it already. It is a Horror, more Psychological then jump. it scares. It is about the legend of the Yamanba (sort of like the Japanese Equivalent to the Baba-yaga, hence the name), and what one does to prove it's existence. It also shows how fucked up people can be. This also as more one-sided yuri which is just the dependency of one crazy, yandere girl. (Yeah, that makes two with Pseudo yuri, yeah I'm into yuri but this is just total coincidence.)
4. Sugar Dark
This one mixes a lot. Action, Horror, Romance, Fantasy, Military. It is hard to explain without spoiling. All I have to say is this is the manga that I eagerly waited for the next chapter to come. Once the chapter came out I read about 3 times. Very good Manga that has an actual ending, for being pretty short.
5. Necromancer
An Horror manga with a touch of comedy here and there. Each Chapter is Episodic about a man who can raise the dead for a price, and what happens to those who come back to life and those who ask for life to be brought back to the dead. it is filled with Morals, very sneaky trickery and shows the inner selves of different types of people. All chapters are relentless in their own way. (albeit one is pretty heartwarming/bittersweet.) It is very recommended.
Yeah, I like the Romances, The Horrors, The Romcoms, the Ecchi, the Harems lol.
